Chapter 73 (1/2)

Yuan Gun Gun kept her mouth firmly shut. Han Yan Che gave her a warning look, and she opened her mouth. He fed her the broth, and her eyes lit up.

'Young master, it tastes delicious,' Yuan Gun Gun said.

Hao Yan Che silently fed Yuan Gun Gun the whole bowl of broth, spoon by spoon. Afterward he wiped her mouth, took the tray away and returned with a box of chocolates.

Yuan Gun Gun's eyes turned into love hearts at the sight of chocolates.

Hao Yan Che put the box of chocolates in Yuan Gun Gun's hands.

'You're only allowed to eat three chocolates,' Hao Yan Che said.

Yuan Gun Gun hugged the box of chocolates. Hao Yan Che's brows creased and he walked to the door.

'Young master, where are you going?' Yuan Gun Gun asked.

'To the study room,' Hao Yan Che said. 'If you need anything, call aunty Chen.'

After Hao Yan Che left, Yuan Gun Gun opened the box of chocolates. She unwrapped a chocolate, put it in her mouth and it melted deliciously in her mouth. She couldn't resist unwrapping another chocolate... moments later, she felt like she was struck by lightning. An image of Hao Yan Che's violet eyes looking at the empty box of chocolates in her hands made her whole body shiver.

Yuan Gun Gun wiped her hands to get rid of the evidence. Then she carefully rewrapped the wrappers and put them inside the empty box. She was thankful her mummy taught her what to do if she accidently ate too many chocolates.

Suddenly the phone rang, and startled Yuan Gun Gun.

'Hello... big brother Due!' Yuan Gun Gun greeted.

'Yes it's me,' Na Liu Ting Du said. 'Have you been well?'

'Not bad,' Yuan Gun Gun said. 'What about everyone?'

'Everyone is healthy,' Na Liu Ting Du said. 'Are you sure you don't want to go to school? Is it because of what happened? Do you want me to change schools for you?'

'Young master won't let me go to school,' Yuan Gun Gun said.

Na Liu Ting Du was unhappy to hear Yuan Gun Gun mention Hao Yan Che.

'Big brother Du, are you there?' Yuan Gun Gun asked.

'I'm here,' Na Liu Ting Du said. 'What do you do now?'

'Young master hired a teacher to home school me,' Yuan Gun Gun said. 'My teacher is training me how to be a secretary.'

'Really?' Na Li Ting Du asked. He gripped the phone. 'How are you studies?'

'Good,' Yuan Gun Gun said. 'My teacher praises me. She said I'm a good student.'
